Scallop Fried Rice

Steps

1. 1

   Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. Sear the scallops in one layer for 1 minute, toss, and cook 30 seconds more. Move them to a plate.

2. 2

   Add another tablespoon of oil and the eggs. Scramble until just set and move them to the plate.

3. 3

   Add the last of the oil, the peas and carrots, the green onion whites and the garlic. Stir-fry 1 minute.

4. 4

   Add the rice and break up any clumps. Spread it out and let it sit 1 minute to toast, then toss. Keep going 3 to 4 minutes, until it's hot all the way through.

5. 5

   Add the soy sauce, the scallops with their juices, and the eggs. Toss about 1 minute, until the scallops are opaque all the way through.

6. 6

   Take the pan off the heat. Stir in the sesame oil and green onion tops, and season with pepper.
